Town Authorities vf Salina, Kan Evolve Good Scheme. A Kentuckian, who recently visited Salina, Kan., writes to a Kentucky pa- per as follows: “I wish to tell you of something I saw in Kansas. As I sat in the hotel in Salina the fire bells rang. In a second three rubber-tired hacks standing in front of the hotel started. Before I could ask I saw three hose carts hitched to the axles of the hacks, about one dozen firemen comfortably seated in the hacks, and under whip the procession disappeared at full speed.” Not being able to raaintain a team of horses at the fire station the town resorted to the ex- pedient of offering a good price for the first team that shall arrive and hitch to the hose cart. The hacks, being on constant duty, often vie with one another for the prize, and the general result in point of quick service is not so much behind the city system as some might suppose. —Kansas City (Mo.)

The man wao fails and then suc ceeds is more fortunate than the map who succeeds and then fails. F Ce~ ainly Not. When you Zee a young man sitting in a drawing room with the ugliest 4 year-old boy that ever frightened him- self in a mirror clambering over his knees, jerking his necktie out of place, ruffling his shirt-front, pulling his hair, kicking his shins, feeling in all his pockets for coppers, while the anresisting victim-smiles all the time like the cover of a comic paper, you may safely say that the howling boy has a sister‘ who is in a room not twenty feet away, and that the young man doesn’t come “here just for the fun of playing with her brother. : —— Religious Zeal Too Strong. John Newdick, a citizen of Kokomo, Ind, is of a strongly religious turn, but Mrs. Newdick is a trifle unregen- erate. The other evening John an- nounced family prayers, but at that moment it was inconvenient for his wife to attend, as her hands were “in the dough.” John was already on his knees, but he arose and thrashed his irreligious spouse, after which he concluded his devotional exorcise» with all due reverence. Mrs. Newdick had him up before a magistrate vext morning and nis excess of zeal cost him $25 and costs.—Exchange. ————_—__>——_ Get your Job Work at Herald-Review.

Brstous Citizen Knew the Fate Which Awaited Him. fepresentative-elect James Kennedy of Youngstown, Ohio, has ingratiated himself in the last few days with the House coterie. He is a story teller and reproducer of dialect. There is always. dn extra seat for a man of that caliber who wanders near the cloakroom precincts. Here is a dia- fogue he recounts between two Ohio |. citizens, who had remained out late and were staggering home together in the early morning: First Citizen—What will your wife say when she shees you coming home (bic) at yis unearthly hour? Second Citizen—Oh, not much (hic). My wife don’t talk, but she thinks a great deal (hic). How about your wife? First Citizen—My wife. (hic.) Post. Ah, ha! She’s an orator.—Washington WIFE OF MANY COLORS. Boston Journal Sees Advantages in Such a Possession. * The Lady Chameieon 3s attracting attention in Paris, She is a young Roumanian, Marga Cerbus by name, whose coloring is determined by her emotions. Anxiety turns her green; she is pink when joyful; violet whea afraid and black when angry. The Boston Journal can see how such a woman would be a never-failing-joy as a wife. Her husband would never be ‘n doubt as to the precise’ nature of her mental condition. And then there might come a mildly polygamous feel- ing to a husband having a white wife, a colored wife and a red wife on dif- ferent days. “Yet Miss Cerbus will, no doubt, marry a man that is color blind, and therefore unappreciative; such is the irony of life.” Lord Roberts’ Magnificent Sword, A citizen who has just returned from a trip in Europe says that the sword presented to Admiral Dewey is a beauty, but that in the matter of downright gorgeousness it is rather a poor second to that given to Lord Roberts by the city of Portsmouth re cently. The American, who has ex amined both weapons, says that the one owned by the little English sol dier is probably the costliest thing of itr kind in the world. The hand-made blade is of English steel inscribed with all the engagements in which Lord Roberts has taken part. The grip is of gold and carved ivory, the guard of solid gold ornamented with rubies, dia- mands and sapphires, and the scab bard is splendidly decorted. Tomb of Joremy Bentham. In University college, London, ts ® singular object that is preserved care fully ina remete gallery inside a glass case, which, again, is contained in a huge wooden cupboard, the doors of which are locked and the keys in safe custody. The relic which is thus so zealously guarded is described $2 some notes on the history of the college ‘as the “skeleton” of Jeremy Bentham, “clad in the garments in which he lived,’ while his head only is stated to have been ‘mummified.” It has always been understood that Bentham’s body was embalmed, and- in that case it cannot be his mere skeleton which is reposing there un- der lock and key. John Kelly's Son a Broker. John Jerome Kelly, son of the late John Kelly, who was leader of Tam- many Hall next before Croker, be- came a member of the New York Stock exchange a few days ago and was initiated with a degree of vio lence which bore testimony to his pop- ularity. The members daubed his face with paint and made him dance as Indians dance in geography pictures. The ason they hazed him that way was because his father was a politi- cal Indian and because Mr. Kelly ex- pects to du whatever brokerage busi- ness there is to be done for the Tam- many Indians of this day. Out of the Age. Maximilian was an anachronism. He belonged to the age of knight-errantry. For himself immolation was attractive in comparison with cowardice and meanness. The very motive which impelled him to embrace that ilk starred mission was noble and unsel- fish. Those who fought against the empire he sought to establish on American soil always honored and esteemed the mar. There was none among the true sold!ers of Mexico who did not respect his memory, and no attempt to blot that pure scutcheon will escape rebuke while one of them survives.—Washington Post. Offictal’s Unique Signature. Through the retirement of Col. An- drew N. Demrell, which took place re cently, the records of the regular army engineer corps will lose the most remarkable signature knowa in the service. His name as appended to official papers vas simply a series of absolutely uxdecipherable marks, though his handwriting, otherwise is. remarkably plain. The colonel, a Massachusetts man, entered West Point in 1860 and has a creditable ca- reer. He has had charge of many Im- portant river and harbor projects. Removing Stains From Glass. In order to remove paint and putty from window glass, put sufficient sal- eratus into hot water to make a strong solution, and with this solution remove the paint and putty that ad- heres to the glass. Let it remain un- til nearly dry, when the paint can be removed by rubbing it with a woolen rag. The putty can be removed by, means ef ‘a putty knife or similar im strument. CANNON TELLS GOOD STORY. Appropriate Saying Recalled at a Washington Dinner. a "y number of speakers made’ short addresses at the dinner which Secre tary Root recently gave to members of the military affairs .committee. Congressman Cannon was present, but he escaped Mr. Root’s eye until every- body else had talked. Then he was called upon and said the occasion re minded him of a revival meeting he once attended in [linois, “A lot of deacons and other hefty persons ad- ‘dressed the assemblage and then a @eformed gambler was called upon to testify,’ continued Mr. Cannon, “and this is what he said: ‘Brethren and sisters, I have sat here and listened to the great men tell of their experi- ences. The elder has spoken and the minister and the deacon and now you call on me, only a poor ninkum- slinkum.’ That’s me,” said “Uncle Joe,” sitting down. HOW THE PROFESSIONS DIFFER. Comparison Made Between Clergymen and Actors. Hall Caine is a great admirer of the theater. He holds the actor’s art in the highest esteem. On his recent visit to America he met at a matinee ® New York clergyman, and the latter, apropos of an attempted comparison of the church and stage, said: “Actors speak of imaginary things, and affect their hearers as though they spoke of real things. Clergymen speak of real things, and their congregations are no more affected than if they were imaginary.” Hall Caine smiled. “Well, don’t you know why that is?” he said. “Actors speak of things imaginary as though they were real, and clergymen speak of things real as though they were imaginary.” Protection for Animals. Mimicry among butterflies, moths and other insects would be comic were it not a matter of lite or death. Not a few moths have at the hinder ends of their wings a black mark and two or more tails resembling the horns of their own heads. A veteran in warfare not seldom has these por- tions missing—a proof of the value in having saved his life. Thus the liz ard’s brittle tail, which, first attract- Ing the enemy, comes off at his touch, lets his would-be prey escape. When at bay crabs distract the enemy by throwing off “eir claws and lob- sters do the trick yet more neatly by seizing the enemy with a claw and then throwing off limb and enemy. Thus the bushy tail of the squirrel is accounted for—thers ‘s a chance of escaping the enemy minus a mouth- ful of fur. University Loses Much Money. John B. Stetson, a wealthy manu facturer of Philadelphia, has cut from his will all provisions for the univer- sity at Deland, Fla., which bears his name. This step followed the action of the board of trustees in exonerat- ing the president of the institution, Dr. John F. Forbes, whose conduct had been under investigation. “I cer tainly shall not aid the university longer under its present manage ment,” Mr. Stetson is quoted as say- ing. “I changed my will hurriedly as soon as the action of the trustees was taken for fear that 1 might die before the clauses providing for the John B. Stetson university were cut out.” A Call for Action. A New England senator’s fair con- stituent, with a pension claim, is re ported to have written to him in the following fashion: “This beautiful government, for which my husband gave his health and for whieh we lost our home, requires a good wife and mother months and years to keep swearing and swearing to even her marriage and other things too numer ous to mention. I wish the whole pen- sion department was obliged to go, as I do, without their overcoats or decent nnderclothes. I wish I held the reins to keep their rightful pay from them until they aro purple as pny old dam ton.” : A Kiss, SE Following are a number of clever Gefinitions of the kiss: A report at headquarters. Nothing divided between two. The food by which the flame of love fs fed. . The sweetest labial of the world’s language. The only known “smack” that will calm a storm. A thing of use to. no one, but much prized by two. Everybody’s acting edition of “Ro- meo and Juliet.” e drop that runneth over when th up of love is full, } enough for one, just enough for two, too much for three. A telegram to the heart, in- which the operator uses the “sounding” sy tem. The only really agreeable two-facet. action under the sun, er the moon, either. What the child receives free, what the young man steals apd what the old man buys. The thunder-clap of the lips, whicb inevitably follows the lightning glance of the eyes. The baby’s right, the lover’s privi- lege, the parent’s benison and the hyp ocrite’s mask. The sweetest fruit on the “tree oa love. The oftener plucked the more abundant it grows. A kiss is an insipid and tasteless mersel, which becomes délicious and delectable in proportion as it ts flaw ore with love. THE TAYLO .
